And according to you, its silly to even scoff at that notion?
Sounds legit.
Suggesting that a plane like this can be landed at an "abandoned" airfield, no matter how much modification is done, clearly indicates that you have no clue what kind of runway is required to even support a loaded plane like this. it's not like Sea Bees laying down landing mats in the mud to land a single passenger WWII fighter plane you know.

If I would consider landing unnoticed the only thing I would consider would be - landing in current airfield/airport in some "friendly" country, WITH a knowledge of airport staff.
